Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mr. Osborne Morgan's Burials Bill: Speech of the Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli, M. P., In the House of Commons, March 26, 1873, on Moving the Rejection of the Bill on Its Second Reading
Mr. Disraeli: Well, but that is not enough. As if it were not sufficient to point out in so marked and painful a manner the different conditions under the intended law of the Nonconformist and his minister and the Churchman and his clergyman, there is a seventh provision which certainly is not the institution of a new privilege, but which contains an arrangement by which the clergyman is compelled to act as clerk to the Nonconformists, to register all their doings, and thus to occupy the inferior position of recording all their proceedings, which, under this Bill, might at least be eccentric. (hear, hear, and laughter.)
